Boarding house presented to students in Bac Yen district

The provincial Party Committee's Mass Mobilization Board, the Vietnam Oil and Gas Group (Petrovietnam), Capital Women's Newspaper, and the provincial Women Journalists Club on December 30 collaborated with Pac Nga commune, Bac Yen district to hand over a boarding house and auxiliary items for female students at the Pac Nga Secondary School.

In the 2024-2025 school year, the school has a total of 558 students, including 141 boarding students, of whom 68 are girls. The boarding facilities, which had been in use for many years, were in poor condition. The auxiliary items, which are essential for the daily needs of boarding students, were inadequate, with no separate bathrooms and toilets for schoolgirls.

Its total investment was 250 million VND (approx. 10,000 USD), funded through the cooperation of the Mass Mobilization Board of the provincial Party Committee, the provincial Women Journalists Club, Petrovietnam, and Capital Women's Newspaper. Once put into use, it provides better living conditions for both teachers and students.
